About

SoChain is a blockchain explorer that crypto users can use to explore the Bitcoin blockchain and other blockchains. SoChain also offers APIs. SoChain's fast blockchain API is the easiest, most cost-effective way to build applications on Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Zcash, and Dash. We also offer Test Networks for developers to get started in a sandbox environment. Currency is just the first application of the Blockchain, and there's alot more to come. We're helping you make the future happen. This API is fast, and free. If you'd like to see more features, or if you need an obscenely large number of API calls, talk to us. We're happy to help. Accessing the SoChain API is simple. Whichever programming language you use, you can call our REST API using any HTTP adapter. For accessing this API using Ruby or Ruby on Rails, we recommend using the HTTPClient gem.

Pricing

€20
Start is free for testing and early development — 100,000 requests, 15 RPS, and access to 5 networks for one month.

Pro fits small production apps needing steady traffic: 1,000,000 requests/month, 3 API keys, WebSocket and market data access — €20/month (€18/month billed annually).

Pro Plus works for growing apps with occasional spikes — 10,000,000 requests/month plus pay-as-you-go overage (€5/100k requests) instead of a hard cap — €90/month (€81/month billed annually).

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Absolutely flawless I like the speed, accuracy, chain coverage and prices are reasonable and i am using it since more than a year.
  • NOWNodes provides reliable blockchain infrastructure with a wide range of supported networks. The API is straightforward, the documentation is clear, and the integration process is smooth. Their support team is responsive, professional, and always helpful when resolving technical issues.
  • The team is very responsive. We asked about the ARC network and it was live shortly after. Setup was straightforward, and we get answers on a shared channel the same day.
  • We've been using NOWNodes for over three years at TeleSwap, a decentralized Bitcoin bridge that connects Bitcoin with other blockchains. We use their RPC services across multiple networks, including Bitcoin, Polygon, and BNB Smart Chain, and our experience has been great. The biggest thing for us is reliability. I honestly can't remember the last time we had an outage or any downtime with their service. When you're running a cross-chain bridge, having reliable RPC infrastructure is really important, and NOWNodes has been rock solid for us. It's one of those services that just works, and you don't have to worry about it.
  • NOWNodes gives the multi-chain cryptowallet I work in a reliable access to a broad range of blockchain networks without requiring our team to maintain every node internally. This is particularly valuable for a multi-chain wallet like ours, where infrastructure requirements can vary significantly from one network to another. I also appreciate the stability of the service and the responsiveness of their technical support when an issue requires investigation.

Cons

  • I didn't find any till date, like they are integrating more chains i would like if they integrate base testnet
  • Nothing significant to complain about. Overall, the experience has been great, and the team is continuously improving the service.
  • Nothing major so far. It has been stable since we started, and the few questions we had were sorted out quickly.
  • Honestly, nothing major comes to mind. We've been happy with the service and haven't had any significant issues.
  • Personally, I would appreciate even more proactive and detailed communication around network-specific incidents, planned maintenance, upgrades, and degraded performance. Earlier visibility into what is affected, the expected impact, and whether any action is required on our side would make troubleshooting across multiple networks even more efficient.
